I juts can't stand the font that's been messed with in this version of Firefox, and I've tried nearly all the gfx.enable.this.piece.of.crap = true that I've found on various forums and nothing seems to have worked.

My fonts are blurry and seems pixellated !^@$@!So here I am, literally begging to a solution to this problem.

1) Is there a way I can roll back?2) I don't mind reformatting (I have to do that anyways, but can I make it so that it only updates to FF 17 and stops there)?3) Where can I find the .deb for FF17.

I have the same problem!!I tried all fixes listed on this forum and elsewhere, none of them work. I haven't done this yet to my system,I plan on downgrading tomorrow but for FF 17 you have download the tarball and compile yourself using this tutorial.http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/04/how ... d=noscript

Mine is the esr, you have the 17.0.1 or whatever. what's the difference between the two.I reformatted so now i am starting with the version of FF12 .

17.01 is the last version of 17. It supposely fixed the blurry font problem that many Windows users were having. I never had the problem on Linux using 17 nor 17.01 only now using 18. I going try 17.0.1.

gonna see if i can make that into our guide and put it into our community archives.

The only problem you have choose in firefox>preferences>advanced> Check for updates,but let me choose when to install them or never check for updates or else you firefox might automatically update to 18 as mine did a few days ago. Hopefully the problem will fixed in FF 19 (Feb 19, 2013).
